I didn't eat for a little over 24 hours and managed to lose a pound. if i went, let's say, a few days like this - will i continue to lose the pounds?

Bad Idea.: Chances are the weight you lost was water weight and not actual body weight. Once you start eating again, which hopefully will be soon, any lost weight will shoot right back onto you. Bad way to try to lose weight.
